Best and Worst of SmackDown Live: 23 May, 2017

#2 Best: WWE’s completely invested in Jinder Mahal

The Punjabi celebrations on SmackDown Live were really quite lavish

WWE spent a fortune on making Jinder Mahal look like a Superstar. His celebrations were laden with pomp and show, making his win seem like a big deal. We enjoyed the duality of his promo.

While it is essentially a heel promo for a market such as the United States, it is a babyface promo for those watching in India. WWE is likely to earn new fans in the Indian market with Jinder Mahal's win and with some great music and exotic dancers, they’ve made him a Superstar overnight.
